GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

It's a great school they support me with everything needed or required and they are great about problem solving

The school doesn't really care about the students that aren't top of their class and really don't show any attention to the art students unless they win an award. The school could use a little improving of understanding that kids are trying their best to do their best but things get in the way. Instead of heavy homework and 80% weighted test do hands on learning I promise you so much will change if your just there with the kids physically teaching them how to do something rather than a 45 minute lecture that all the kids want to escape. Try to make learning fun and not miserable.
